Example Question #1 : Basic Statistics
What is the mean of 44, 22, 134, and 200?
66
144
88
100
100
To find the mean, you must add all of the numbers together and divide by the amount of numbers. In this case there are four numbers so, we must deivide the total sum by 4.
Example Question #1 : Basic Statistics
Calculate the mean of the following numbers: 11, 13, 16, 13, 14, 19, 13, 13
First, calculate the sum of all of the numbers.
Next, divide by the total number.
Example Question #1 : How To Find Mean
Find the mean of this number set: 2, 5, 6, 7, 7, 3
The numbers add up to 30. To find the mean, divide by the number of numbers (6) and you get a mean of 5. Mean is a fancy way of saying average.
Example Question #2 : Basic Statistics
The class average in a class of 15 is 86%. If one additional student earns a 100% in the class, what is the new class average.
None of the available answers
There is not enough information to answer this question
We can treat this as if the entire class had exactly 86% as their average, so the new average is:

Example Question #1 : Statistics And Probability
Is the following method for collecting data biased? If so, why?
A company would like to assess the approval of their new product. To determine if customers were happy with their product, they placed a link on their website to all consumers to opt-in to provide their opinion.
Yes; this is an example of exclusion bias.
